Don't Sky and BT have a set number of slots for showing games. Tonight is not one of those slots as neither company were expecting a game tonight, as the game would have been played on a Saturday at 3pm but for the FA cup (I think).
Showing this game may be possible but may have meant dropping another game (potentially a league decider).
If the TV companies could show unlimited games then this game would be live. Manchester United will always get an audience and the fact that it is Vidic, Giggs and others last Old Trafford game will raise interest.
I was listening to the commentary on 5live, but had to turn it off, because they DID NOT stop going on about Ryan Giggs. He wasn't even playing at the time. He wasn't even warming up. Occasionally, the main commentator had to interrupt John Hartson to say what was happening on the pitch. Awful.

BBC radio football coverage very poor these days. Totally obsessed with top of the PL and even more obsessed with the Champions League. All this at the expense of the Football League which gets minimal coverage. Very poor for a national broadcaster.

Both teams dont have a staggering amount to play for in terms of league position. Hull have their mind firmly on the cup.
Call it the ryan giggs show.
we get 16000-18000 every game?!?!?!?
